New Drop Time Going Forward - Sundays 4pm PST 👊🏻

@justintorres08 Год назад

Man I really appreciate the showing of the use of a heat gun. I’ve always used a torch but a heat gun seems so much controllable and cleaner. I like it. I’ll be added a heat gun in the home shop for sure

@romanracela Год назад

$80? Holy guacamole! I'm a no on that dog! 🤣

@blakeumthun8128 Год назад

I get sick to my stomach when I think about busting or losing a $40 arrow. I can't even fathom a $90 arrow. I like the use of the heat gun. Gonna give that a try instead of the torch.

@dakotacornell233 Год назад

One of the best ways I have found to test for the weakest point in an arrow shaft (like with your ram tester) is as follows: Put a field point in each end of the arrow shaft, put the arrow in between your bow press arms, and press the arrow until it flexes. The arrow will flex toward the weakest part in the shaft. After it flexes in that direction, align it vertically so that the arrow flex is like a rainbow, and mark the top of the arrow. Rinse and repeat. Even testing this with bare shaft tuning afterward, bow press shaft testing has basically eliminated the need for me to bare shaft tune.

@kasette8212 Год назад

I'll Test IT

@kasette8212 Год назад

Im not gonna lie, this works somehow. i tested 2 arrows and there were pretty close to my marks. I will use the Cornell method now to double check or pre check my marks. Thanks a lot

@@kasette8212 thanks for testing it out! It's not 100% perfect, but it saves a lot of time in nock tuning

@Bowhunter66 Год назад

Great build, simple and straight forward. Wish they would have had RU-vid when I first started Bowhunting. Enjoy watching the next generation so excited about archery and much more willing to share your knowledge. Older archer like myself actually learns a new trick or two. I personally enjoy the content you bring. Keep it coming!

@benjaminmonteros6366 Год назад

@darkwandervids6717 Год назад

I like the conciseness too but the antics of the unscripted goofing off is what makes the channel seem like they are just regular people who are providing us with great information and a entertaining video to watch

@Will_Osborne Год назад

Another great video! I appreciate your level of honesty in all the areas where it matters but no one really knows if it does or not. I binged elk shape faster than any other TV show. Keep up the great content and elk hunting videos.

@mattgoin Год назад

A little to expensive for my blood! Appreciate the work put into it, but I have never had a problem with the way I've done my arrows and now way you can shoot good enough to tell in my opinion. Thanks for sharing Dan, love the content

@MatthewC137 Год назад

You're doing exactly what I switched to last summer except my arrows are the awesome Victory VAP TKO (4mm). I would advise getting your glue and insert just hot enough because it is easy to get it much hotter than necessary which can be bad for your carbon arrow. I know from experience that "just hot enough" holds just as well and I've never had one come out in a target. Iron Will components are great and I love the single bevel broadheads.

@SheepdogConservation Год назад

I dig the whole system very cool stuff! Just finished the podcast where your guest was nerding out on the procomps and I was convinced to lighten my arrows! Going from 11.2gpi day six to 8.1gpi black eagle and hoping that it still likes the 150gr Valkyrie blood eagle upfront!! You already know I can't wait for the Valkyrie one!

@ramzeygardiner8838 Год назад

Thank you for all you do.im looking forward to it

@bulltroutoutdoors9440 Год назад

Those are gonna be awesome kill sticks. I went all out last year on the Black Eagle X-impact 250’s with: Elkshape vanes, steel inserts and outserts, and Iron will single bevel 150’s. The ASD Flip is SO important (black ovis doesn’t square the ends). Ive been incredibly happy with my choices!

@saskhuntsman2980 Год назад

I ran the 4mm Nexxus arrow last year. Insert/outsert component bent on my whitetail. This Snyder system looks really sturdy!

@coltadams8240 Год назад

Went with the 4mm Axis match grade this year with the Iron Will components. Those iron will field tips are insanely tough! Debating on trying the Broad heads as well but having a hard time going away from the Sevr 1.5” Titanium.

@paulshumate2904 Год назад

@DecisiveOutdoors Год назад

Cool video! I personally like the concept of the 4mm shafts. Been shooting the 4mm FMJs. No complaints on my end. I’ve heard people say they aren’t very accurate. Groups and results speak for themselves. I have them paired with the Easton titanium outserts. So I have more of the budget build of what you have going on here.

@unsupportedultra 11 месяцев назад

I have almost the exact same build. I used the Sirius Orions and AAE Max Stealth vanes, plus Nockturnal nocks. They're pricy, but they give me huge confidence and I think that's worth a lot.

@royhoglund1322 Год назад

Good morning Dan! The Pro Comp is a terrific arrow and one I've used for tournament archery. I'm pretty sure I'm not a good enough shooter to tell the difference but the specs for hunting are intriguing, especially at my draw weight and length. I'm loving the ABT mindset. Also, just a quick note, THANK YOU FOR ELKSHAPE CAMP! For me it was many things, but most importantly it was a gut check at life! Stop, start, modify and always ABT!

There is 2 types of expensive. Paying good money for something that is good except there might be some structural integrity problems in the future. Or buy something great that will last 10 times as long with more durability. But that worries some in the archery industry who depends on people buying new every year, especially broadheads.

Spends at least $700 on arrow setup, "its a good candidate for being in my quiver". Love it

@bdubs1010 Год назад

Man I wanted to shit on this when I first saw it. But upon my better judgement I watched to the end. 99% of shooters, these wouldn’t make a difference and they would never pay for these. But for the 1% that it would make a difference and they would pay… it’s your money so more power to you and you do you bro. Sweet setup. The other 99%… shoot what you want and spend your money on what’s important to you. I’m sure we would all be better off taking time working on our form until we surpass the capabilities of our setup. Truth is, most of us already use gear that’s way above our abilities and the only thing holding us back is us.

@terrymccleery3497 2 месяца назад

Dang add a lighted nock might as well try to get it over $100. I thought I was bad at about $56. That arrow build is so cool. But dang I’d be making darn sure I had a tree or a hill behind the animal I was shooting at to stop my pass thru so I could find the darn thing. I’d look long and hard if I shot that thru an animal. Probably look for multiple days. With a metal detector.

@blakebrown1559 Год назад

I won’t go this far in depth, but this year I’m running the Easton axis 260 5mm with the iron will broadheads. I can’t wait!

@MichaelKeane-vm2mj Год назад

more than likely to penetrate deeper in a foam style target. but isn’t going to be any deeper in an animal than a standard diameter arrow. big sharp hunk of metal is doing all the work not the arrow diameter. in my non professional opinion of course.

@trckn_151 Год назад

Here I'm thinking $12-$15 per arrow was too much. But $80 per? Those better be homing / guided arrows that never miss. To me it just add more preasure on top of the preasure of making the shot. The pucker factor of missing and lodging one in a tree or bouncing one off a rock would be too much. Hope they shoot the way you are expecting them to and you can actually see the difference between them and a less expensive arrow.

Easton Archery’s plays the 51% rule with carbon arrows to say that they are made in the USA due to EPA laws and OSHA no carbon shafts can be made in the USA companies use the 51% rule. Easton Archery aluminum arrows on the other hand are made in house.

@deanbrantley Год назад

As someone who shot Acc and FMJ for years I’ll never shoot an arrow with aluminum anywhere in it. Just shooting groups alone will ruin them and you need to inspect every arrow in the group after you shoot them. Hate to say it DS, but this was an expensive mistake. But hey, I’ll keep doing me, good luck.

I COMPLETELY understand using expensive arrows, but the components cost twice as much as the arrow. You could ruin 2 arrows and still break even with cheaper components. I haven’t wrapped my head around that, yet. Honestly, a half dozen of these cost just a little bit less than my bow setup did when I bought it. Will that kill you an extra elk per season? I don’t know, but if I could afford it and didn’t mind all the work, that’s a cool arrow!
